Football pitches are barely usable

Over the past few years, the football picthes quality has gone from good to abysmall. The goal nets are full of holes, the black nets separating different pitches are broken and they can't close properly. Nevertheless, the price is still increasing every year and maintenance is still close to zero.

Friendly Gym experience

I attended a Healthwise supervised gym session and found the gym was a friendly space. The supervisor was available to help when I struggled with on piece of equipment and another Healthwise who had given me the initial assessment person came to see me and helped explain how to get the most from some equipment. Overall, I am pleased with my BetterHealth subscription.

Friendly & encouraging

The feeling of safely exercising and a closely monitored induction by friendly staff who put you at ease. A plan that you can work to is very helpful, especially as I’d had no gym experience. The environment also feels safe and encouraging.
